Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFThe correct answer is option 2):(100)
Concept:
Maxwell Unit:
A maxwell is a non-SI unit.
One maxwell is the total flux across a surface of one square centimetre perpendicular to a magnetic field of strength one gauss.
1 Line is equivalent to 1 maxwell
100 maxwells = 100 magnetic line
Additional Information
1 maxwell = 1 gauss × cm2 .... (1)
Since gauss is a CGS unit and it is given by,
1 gauss = 10-4 Tesla And, 1 cm = 10-2 m
From equation (1),
1 maxwell = 10-4 Tesla × 10-4 m2 or,
1 maxwell = 10-4 wb/m2 × 10-4 m2 (T = wb/m2)
